The states having freer, happier people if they seceede. Some of the states have people in charge that I believe would be more exreeme or more crafty in achieving permanent power for themselves. I'd like to be optimistic, but the number of people who agree with Trump's rhetoric and my previous coworker who said they were excited at the idea of a civil war has tempered my positivity.
Something good is here, but I'd still want something to balance the power of those in charge of each state. I definitely agree that the power balance between state and federal right now is all screwed up by the two party system, bad faith actors, and too much distance from the public.
Lemmy has a unique community. Lots of thinkers. Personally, I love reading when people start seriously interpreting greentexts.
I may not agree with all of your points, but well done in the presentation. Comes across as reasoned and thought out instead of the irl people I interract with that downplay the severity of how this will affect the average and non-average US citizen.
Sooo, you liked her politics but felt forced into a choice anyway? Am I reading your comment right?
That's fair. I'm just trying to decide what I can do living in a country more concerned with populism than policy, and really don't like the reality of that situation. I should probably speak with some Punk artists and musicians.
Sounds like conservatism in the US needs to be relabeled as regressivism.
Fair, I'm just curious why ShaggySnacks mentioned the status quo thing when personal freedoms are being encroached on and revoked.
I thought liberalism literrally meant that personal freedoms are the most important thing to that person and the belief is the government should not restrict them and needs to actively protect them.
So that's why 15 Million less people voted this year for the democratic candidate? All because the Biden administration could only acomplish some of their goals? That 15 million would have voted if they were more stubborn and further left on policies, or if they had managed more of the goals? I don't understand how that makes sense.
Is there multiple editions, or just one run?
Edit: Looked it up. Amazon has it, but will check my local bookstore/comicstore first.
Some of them, yes. I have family that fit your description, but I also have family filled with anger and spite. The ones who hold hate I can and will blame for it.
